Regulation of NaK-ATPase Activity by Neurotransmitters
The hitherto unknown NT-regulated mechanism of NaK-ATPase localized in the nerve ending membranes is found. The mechanism certainly has a functional significance and must be involved in the regulation – modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. On the other hand , the availability of the discovered specific protein, regulators (SFa and SFi) of synaptic origin, makes it possible to consider ...
متن کاملLocalization of NaK ATPase on cultured human retinal pigment epithelium.
PURPOSE To localize NaK ATPase sites on cultured human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). METHODS Cultured human RPE from fetal, 2-year-old, and 21-year-old donors was grown to confluence in microporous culture wells for 4 months to 2 years, mounted in a small-volume Ussing chamber, and perfused with growth medium. Ouabain (10(-5)-M) was applied to the basal and apical sides of the RPE. Change...
متن کاملHypertonic stress increases NaK ATPase, taurine, and myoinositol in human lens and retinal pigment epithelial cultures.
PURPOSE Recent evidence suggests that taurine and myoinositol may serve as organic osmolytes in a number of cells, including lens and retinal pigment epithelia, but the mechanism for their increased accumulation in response to hypertonic stress is not known. To assess whether NaK ATPase contributed to the elevated levels of taurine and myoinositol in cells exposed to hypertonic media, we measur...
متن کاملEffects of UV-A radiation on lens epithelial NaK-ATPase in organ culture.
PURPOSE To investigate the mechanisms involved in the damage caused by UV-A irradiation at 365 nm on the eye lens. METHODS Bovine lenses obtained from animals 1 to 5 years of age were placed in specially designed organ culture chambers for preincubation. Twenty-four hours later, the lenses were irradiated by 33 J/cm2 UV-A at 365 nm. During irradiation, the lenses were oriented in the culture ...
متن کاملPre-steady-state charge translocation in NaK-ATPase from eel electric organ
Time-resolved measurements of charge translocation and phosphorylation kinetics during the pre-steady state of the NaK-ATPase reaction cycle are presented. NaK-ATPase-containing microsomes prepared from the electric organ of Electrophorus electricus were adsorbed to planar lipid bilayers for investigation of charge translocation, while rapid acid quenching was used to study the concomitant enzy...
